We have measured the relative single and double photoionization cross section of magnesium from 22 to 54 eV photon energy using monochromatized synchrotron radiation. The corresponding double-to-single ionization ratio as well as the relative single photoionization cross section compares reasonably well with recent theoretical calculations [A. S. Kheifets and I. Bray, Phys. Rev. A 75, 042703 (2007)]. The photon energy dependence of the ratio can be modeled by a suitably scaled helium double-to-single photoionization ratio. However, to our surprise, a previously proposed scaling model for that ratio does not work in the case of Mg. From the near-threshold double-photoionization cross section we estimate the range of validity of the Wannier threshold law to be about 0.7 eV with a rather small cross section near threshold.
